It's just a few hours before everything falls apart. The city is still humming — traffic, crowds, the usual noise. Nobody knows what's coming.

But you do.

You have one advantage: information. Use it. Check your finances, make your list, reinforce your doors while you still can. When the outbreak hits, your safehouse needs to hold, and your supplies need to last.

The clock is already ticking.

Hello survivors! Survival Log Playtest #3 will be live on May 15. If you’re interested, here’s everything you need to know:

Playtest Period

May 15 – May 18

Supported Languages

  • English

What's Included in the Playtest

  • From stockpiling to self-sufficiency — build and manage your own shelter

  • Customize your base around your resources and playstyle; every run plays differently

  • A 30-day main storyline, reaching the mid-game for the first time
